How to include chromedriver in gitlab CI/CD? - python-3.x

Question

I have a python selenium script that needs to be run in GitLab CI/CD. Script is running perfectly in local but the only issue is of chrome driver path in gitlab.
Do I also need to add the script to download the chrome?
I am new to gitlab CI/CD.Need help!!
Thanks

Create a Dockerfile which install all the browsers and their web drivers. Create that image and call that image in gitlab to run your tests. Here is the sample dockerfile.
FROM ubuntu:bionic
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y \
